Hey folks. I am in the process of installing a DMH-WT5000 NEX Pioneer stereo in my '08 coupe. I have the Metra DIN faceplate adapter and also their wiring harness 70-6502. It all will hook up fine, but I have a couple of questions. First one is, it seems there is no adapter to use the other separate small harness factory connector which must power the Amp and Sub-woofer (not sure I have that right, see the attached pics where I am pointing to). My goal (I think) is to make this Pioneer head unit work within the factory stereo architecture, using the Amp and sub-woofer...something I am short on experience about this and need some instruction. It seems the adapter harness and stereo I am using, looks like it bypasses the Amp and Sub-woofer. So, I am hoping someone here will give me some insight as to the best way to get this to work as factory, or close to it. To that end (and as mentioned above) can someone tell me what the factor harness area in the picture attached is for? (is it the Amp and sub-woofer)? And if you have a diagram or some clear info on how to make this work within the factory architecture. Thanks for any assistance.
